    I guess the first question is how many Td5 90s are there in Australia? Not too many I suspect, although probably more than any other 90s.

    I'm going to spray my wheels Hot Pink and state I have the only Hot Pink Chocolate Brown Isuzu County in the world.

    Phil isn't that drag car on a 90" chassis?

    In that case I will claim that I once owned Australia's fastest LWB Haflinger with factory wide wheels and fibreglass cab.

    As there were only 20 LWBs imported into Aus and most didn't have the wider rims and fibreglass cab, even in standard form and with a governed top speed of 70kph in top gear, it was probably the fastest one in the country.

    A RACE, A RACE.... LET'S HAVE A RACE!!!

    P.S. I claim the title of fastest Puma - but that's only because everyone else I know has bolted tons of stuff to theirs and mine is probably the lightest.
